Welcome to our open, self-paced ESL study group. We can and hope to add networks to the group. This blog is the hub where you can find lessons, links to ESL learning resources, leave links to add to the network, post comment and questions. The study group project is experimental. Participate by sharing ideas and suggestions.

I think we are evolving into more of an ESL study group than a formal class. A group is more flexible and should be more appropriate for self-paced adults anyway.

So just log on and catch up. Yupaphat, Sadamu and Rajeev have been "on break" too but are back now. We'd love to hear more about your travels.. Mata posted a map to mark where each of us are - or are from. We've been discussing whether to mark where we are now or where we are from originally. Maybe we should mark both but in different colors.

Thank you for your all e-mail and very sorry late reply. After I'm moved back from USA and continue to Johanessburg and last to Combodia. Is not good with internet I can't do anything. At the moment I'm in Bangkok is my home town, since January 2008. I'm start my own bussiness here. Is my Travel agency "Beyond Asia Travel". When I'm here I must running my bussinestoo.

Tell me if you like my work . I have done it very quicly but it will be like this picture. I look for something better. you have to do zoom above the picture to see the tiny black person at the botom of the picture . Above his head there is his name and his country's name. It is mine. Tell me if you agreed with my idea and if you like the picture and my work. Tai knows how to work on picture better than me. Maybe she has to add something else better or maybe can help me . Tell me your opinion or your ideas

I hope everyone is well. I thought something to work on it all together. I want to make a world map as a picture and write on, it our names. I’ll write my name above the Greece’s country. You have to post here where do you live exactly and every time I'll add your name to your country. With this way we’ll know where come from each other off us. I don’t know much about geography and it is a way to learn something more. If you agree Ms Vanessa and all of you I'll look for a full-size map. I’ll send you a off-hand picture as an example to understand what I mean.

Ms Vanessa I prepare to write the assignment that you ask from us a month ago. It was about an artist in or from our country. It is difficult to decide for whom I write. I’m thinking to write about Kazantzakis’s life. I know almost nothing for him. It is an opportunity to learn more things for this person. So next the days I’ll have to study some links for Nikos Kazantzakis, and then I’ll do my assignment.

I am Yuphaphat. I have been away from the class and the blogger for a long time. There is nothing much change about me. just working and taking care of the kids. For the update, I have 2 kids - one is 2 years 3 months old, one is 10 months old. I am working part time and spend the rest of the time with the kids at home. I think about teacher Vanessa's online class today, for some reason and feel bad that I have been away for too long. So, I try to get on Blogger and am so happy to see that I am still part of the class!
